Chapter 7. The ThinLinc Client
C:\> set
Observe that some directories in the Windows %TMP% path may be flagged as hidden by the Windows
system. This means that you need to change directory options to display hidden files and directories to
navigate to the log file.
7.7. Client configuration storage
7.7.1. Overview and Parameters
The ThinLinc client does not currently use Hiveconf for its configuration, although this may change in
future ThinLinc releases. Instead, the Linux client uses a similar plain text format with key/value pairs
and the Windows client stores the values in the Windows registry.
Note: The configuration parameters should seldom be edited by hand. For a system wide
configuration, create a parameter set using the client and copy it to the system wide file.
Configuration Parameters Used by the ThinLinc Client
Both the Windows and the Linux version of the ThinLinc client use the same names for their
configuration parameters, although the storage technique used is different (text files vs. registry keys). In
this section we will list the parameters and explain their possible values.
ALLOW_HOSTKEY_UPDATE
Set to 1 if SSH host key updates should be allowed. This parameter cannot be changed from the
GUI. The result of setting ALLOW_HOSTKEY_UPDATE to 0 is that the client cannot connect to the
server if the host key is wrong. This enhances security if there is a risk for a man in the middle
attack.
AUTHENTICATION_METHOD
This parameter can be set to "password", "publickey", "scpublickey" or "kerberos" to select the
authentication mode used by the client.
AUTOLOGIN
If this parameter is set to 1, the client will automatically login at start, using the server name, user
name and password specified in the configuration storage.
CERTIFICATE
Specifies the smart card certificate to use when authenticating.
CERTIFICATE_NAMING
Controls how the client presents a certificate to the user. The parameter consists of a comma
separated list of naming tokens that represent bits of information from each card or certificate.
Possible tokens:
